[gclist] C++ currency conversion

[John Chertok]

Hi everyone, I'm new to this list so If I am in the wrong place please let 
me know...
I was wondering if anyone can help me here... Here is my problem.

I need to write a function in c / c++ that will receive a char data type ( 
it will contain amounts), the routine should convert it to currency format 
($##,###.00) and return it as char*.   Any ideas, code, or advice would be 
very helpful.  Thanks!

John.
